nice one Varun.. all, see below:
Grabbed the copy of the maestro's latest offering in the evening… and its 2:30 am here.. its being played continuously and i guess i might not sleep today as i can't enough of it. My way of listening to a Rahman Album is, start with one song ( which is most likely to be the one sung by himself), and I did the same with Ada.. *Meherbaan *is the one on my mind rite now. Its the one which is playing for last 3 hours continuously. So probably I will post my opinions on this song and then will cover the other tracks in the coming posts. *Meherbaan *Sung and Composed by A R Rahman, Lyrics by Raqueeb Alam The song starts off with a piano ( close your eyes and you will see rahman on the piano while listening ) … piano some what sounds similar to the one heared in "Shauk Hai", but a bit faster. Rahman has sung it so well, I get goose bumps when he sings "Tere bina mein hun be zameen, Tere bina mein be aaasman… Meherbaan" … and then starts humming ( oh breathtaking!)… with meherbaan in the background.. Rahman sings in his trademark high pitch… then his voice becomes ultra smooth when he sings "Tu hai nazar, main hun nazara" …… a pause … "meharbaan" What a song! …. I am going for a repeat. It was drizzling in bangalore 2 hours back and was driving through the koramangala inner ring road at a speed of 15 kms… ( on the way to the airport to pick up a friend ) and Meherbaan in the background. Try it guys… you will fall in love all over again.. I Have always wondered, why in a Rahman album, the song sung by him goes around in my head for a longer time ( i get addicted ! ) , than any other song! … probably because I feel only he can justify his composition than any other singer. A for meherbaan…. 6 out of 5 stars… A bonus star for making me realise how beautiful love is…. thanks Rahman! 2008/5/20 Varun Nair <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > my take on this song on my blog.. > > http://varunnair.wordpress.com > > -- > Regards, > Varun > >
